Responsible Gaming & Player Wellbeing
Your wellbeing is our priority. While we provide entertainment using virtual currency only, we believe in promoting healthy gaming habits and providing access to support when needed.
Understanding Social Casino Gaming
olyvranthosforge is a social casino platform that provides entertainment using virtual currency exclusively. This means:
- Our game uses virtual coins with no monetary value
- You cannot win real money or real prizes
- Virtual coins cannot be exchanged for real money
- This is NOT gambling - it is entertainment only
- No deposits or withdrawals are possible
- Completely free to play
Play Responsibly
Even though our platform uses virtual currency only, we encourage healthy entertainment habits:
- Set Time Limits: Balance gaming with other activities in your life
- Take Regular Breaks: Step away from the screen regularly
- Never Use as Escape: Gaming should not be a way to avoid problems
- Be Aware: If gaming feels like it is controlling you, seek help
- Age Restriction: This platform is strictly for users 18 years and older
Gaming Should Be Just One Part of Life
Healthy entertainment means maintaining balance. Ask yourself:
- Am I spending more time gaming than I intended?
- Is gaming interfering with work, relationships, or daily responsibilities?
- Do I feel anxious or irritable when I cannot play?
- Am I using gaming to escape from problems or negative feelings?
If you answered yes to any of these questions, it may be time to reassess your gaming habits or seek professional support.
Understanding Virtual Currency
All currency on our platform is virtual and has absolutely no real-world monetary value:
- Virtual coins are for entertainment purposes only
- They cannot be converted to real money
- They cannot be withdrawn or transferred
- Winning or losing virtual coins has no financial impact
- No real money is ever at risk on our platform
Warning Signs
While our platform does not involve real money, some individuals may have underlying issues with gambling. Be aware of these warning signs:
- Spending excessive time on gaming platforms
- Neglecting work, school, or personal relationships
- Feeling the need to play with increasing frequency
- Using gaming as a primary form of entertainment to the exclusion of other activities
- Becoming defensive when someone questions your gaming habits
- Feeling anxious, restless, or irritable when not gaming
If you recognize these signs in yourself or someone you know, professional help is available.
